Daily briefing: We won't be hearing Mandarin station announcements for now

SMRT will be "deliberating over its value and appropriateness".

Yahoo reported that SMRT has scrapped a controversial three-month trial on MRT station announcements in Mandarin. Read about it here.

Meanwhile 13 motorists ran the red light in just 1 hour at the junction of Bukit Timah Road and Scotts Road. Find out more here.

Following the recent strike of Chinese bus drivers, the question now is whether fares should go up in order to pay higher wages. See the story here.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
